Weed J. F. #5 (API 42-239-01481) is a plugged well in Jackson County, plugged December 22, 2005, last operated by Texas Independent Explor Ltd..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 23, 1978, permitted to 9,100 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco Inc. and has since transferred to Texas Independent Explor Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 3.86K barrels of oil and 19.7K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in December 2005. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
